++++; rainbow stained hands from tie-dye every single day, i cant remember any part of my cell phone number, doing laundry in the creek, mending everyones clothes that rip, reading a very good book, reading letters from sara, wearing the same five shirts for weeks on end, smores at campfire, lovinglovinglovingloving, burger island!!!!, yogurt and granola at breakfast, shouting "NOT ON MY WATCH" in the craft house, mustache mondays, camper quotes on the staff lounge wall, how ridiculous the real life skits are becoming, taco night hype, my job, not going to school this fall, four leaf clover hunting, i like camp.

remember how i couldnt stand my economy teacher mr. barbieri from centerline senior year? i would just write passes to get out of that class all the time/ just wouldnt go.
(from a livejournal entry posted january 5th, 2008:)
"i honeslty wouldn't dislike school so much if it wasn't for my econ class. i said it once, and i'll say it again. mr b. is the biggest creep ever. i cannot wait for this semester to end."
i just got the WORST feeling from him and except for like maybe two other people, NO ONE ELSE thought there was anything weird about him. even dana! everyone thought he was funny and awesome and loved his class. it drove me nuts.
and now, surprise surprise:

when the year changed, i was watching fireworks shoot into the air and wishing i could feel my toes. i never like new years day, but today is much different. ive been feeling like i've been on the break of something big, and i think this new year was the push i needed to get myself motivated. i have big plans for this year. i make seasonal goals 4 times a year, but these are my main annual resolutions:
++++
i want to become more conscious of the things i say. i want to think about things before i say them. i want to stop saying negative things about people behind their back, whether i like them or not. i want people to know that i think carefully about what i say and what i think, and that any advice i give will be well mediated on. i want to work on my Icelandic regularly again. Whether i actaully visit there one day or not is still very much up in the air, it doesnt matter if everyone else thinks its something useless to learn. i enjoy it. most importantly: i want to stop focusing on looks so much. myself, (along with most other girls) are guilty of endless comparisons with other females, and putting ourselves down. i drool over lacey dresses and frocks and pearls, when really, having those things would be nice, but i would tire of them just like i tire of every other materialistic thing eventually. so. i've decided to only wear makeup once a month, if at all. and not buy new clothes unless i really need them. this may be a bit on the extreme side, but i want to learn to live without those things. overall, i want to learn how to live selflessly. and put others before myself. all of these things are going to be really difficult to do, because they take conscious effort and work all the time to continue them, but i know i'm going to enjoy it and learn a lot along the way.

so, i think i just removed close to 70 of my friends on here. i just dont understand why people think its unclassy to be naked in a forest and put pictures of it up on my own personal internet journal. in case you havent noticed, i document every part of my life with photographs, and have been doing so on this livejournal for over 2 and a half years, and will continue to do so. i have not showed anything that you couldnt see at a public beach, just skin. i'm not trying to get attention. im not trying to be a slut. i'm just doing what i do. i really cant see how its wrong. or trashy. i know what most of my friends do in their free time, and in my opinion its a whole lot less classy than just frolicking through the foilage. so i guess this is also means i can write about more personal things too, with so many people gone. its just a shame so many of you have to be haters. whatevs.

my usb cord still isnt working and i'm nearing 500 pictures on my camera. i have to go to cvs and put them on a cd today before things get out of control.
sara is home! i saw her last night and we're going out for breakfast in about half an hour. i missed her so bad. and so many good things have already come from her being home, but i'd have to say the best is that she changed the language on my facebook to american Pirate or something, and now everything is in pirate slang and i love facebook. i love deleting things and having them hung in davey jones locker. and i really really love that the logout button says 'abandon ship'.
oh yeah, and that one particular boy does not like me anymore. he likes a girl named archibald. STRUGGLE.

i wish i cared about school. and i know my parents wish i cared about school even more. i cant even tell you whats going on with me and my heart and relationships, because i dont even know. its really humid out today and my hair looks very very similar to an afro. is afro short for something? or is it just afro? anyways, none of the things i just listed were complaints. its just real interesting how a good relationship with God just makes you feel so content with everything else going on, no matter how crazy things are. my nails are painted a glittery gold. the nailpolish bottle was in the shape of a cat.
edit: this nailpolish can be seen under the lj cut modeled by janet several times
( picturespictures )
lately i have been hanging out with janet. and i love it. i wish i could take naps with her and her albino headchog everyday. headchog. that was a really weird word to spell. i had to look it up. this weekend i am excited for an early breakfast date, going up to western, driving my first semi long trip in my new car, and not babysitting at all. i like that its starting to cool off more, im riding my bike more places. and taking more pictures (since jesse fixed my camera. im a fool.)
all good things, all in good time.
hows everyone liking their classes?

ode to the Bloody Sock.
my dear Bloody Sock, friend of mine since i was just a wee lass of 2. if i could, i would drive my car for the rest of my life, but unfortunately, i get my new car today and sign the papers to sell off my poor car for only 250$.
this car has seen me through: my entire childhood, my road test, cramming up to 8 people inside its little interior and breaking the doors while doing so, moving me from my moms to my dads and back again with everything i own minus furniture in the backseat, a million trips through drive thrus, ben asking me out, freezing winters with heat that didnt exactly work, blistering hot summers with a/c that didnt work at all, infinite moments with sara, driving until i dont know where i am at, every salvation army within miles and miles, ann arbor/birmingham/royal oak/romeo/macomb/etc, and its taken with me everyone from babies and toddlers in carseats, to new friends and old friends, grandmas and grandpas, friends and enemies, and everyone in between. it took me new places, and took me from cousino to centerline to cousino and back to centerline high school again. it was with me hours upon hours in construction, detours and being lost in every place you could imagine, especially detroit. it survived over the 100,000 miles driven with new breaks, a patched up radiator, a car accident, crashed headlight and bumper, getting completely torn apart and put back together, rusty gaping holes, new breaks again, and so much more. not to mention i have felt every single emotion possibly known to mankind driving it, the best and worst days you can imagine. crying so hard i couldnt see the road, laughing so hard i couldnt see the road. hand holding and a million "i love yous". places that i was so excited to go, and places i dreaded thinking about. from sleepovers to homecomings to mansions to chipotle to endless hours of babysitting, and weekends of unsuccessful job hunting. basically, it is tied indefinitely to the two years worth of memories it has and even though it smells terrible, i wont ever feel 100% comfortable driving anything else. r.i.p :(

Oh say, wouldn't it be nice to know right now that we'll be someday holding hands in the end. All our broken plans will have been. I will kiss you soft so you know It is love from the first time I pressed my lips against yours thinking, "Oh, is it love?"
So, when I'm gone these words will be here to ease every fear and dry up every tear and make it very clear I kiss you and I know It is love from the first

"in the end, everything will be okay, if its not okay, its not the end". the other day i remembered something very important: everything happens for a reason. and with things happening so sudden and everything being turned upside down i forgot. I really, truly believe God will take care of things, and this is no exception. other than that, my evenings have been filled with the people that mean most to me. trips to starbucks and really wonderful conversations. this weekend is going to be hanging out with people i havent seen in a while, exploring, picture-taking, and horse back riding (just found out my uncle has a farm and 4 horses, who knew). i really want to see batman, and hellboy 2, and a million other movies. i have so much money im not sure what to do with it. i want to take you out for dinner. i want to take lots of pictures of you. i want to go skinny dipping with my best friend. summers really hitting me now, and i am ready to hit it back.
